This project studies the impact of human activities on freshwater quality, particularly focusing on microbial communities in eutrophic lakes. It aims to understand how phage-mediated gene transfer affects microbial metabolism and contributes to nutrient cycling and cyanobacterial blooms.
Freshwater quality was defined as a key environmental theme by the European Environment Agency's State and Outlook 2010 Report. A large threat to freshwater quality is the accelerated eutrophocation of lake waters due to high human impacts from agriculture and industrial and residential wastes, leading to eutrophocation and in some cases toxic cyanobacterial blooms.
Microbial communities in eutrophic lakes contribute to a positive feedback loop which perpetuates eutrophocation.
The persistence…
